### [tobj][tobj]

`tobj` by [@Twinklebear] and [@virtualritz] is a simple and lightweight
option for loading OBJ files. `tobj` was originally written inspired by
[@syoyo]'s tinyobjloader, to provide a similar lightweight and easy to integrate
API for loading OBJ files in Rust.

While initially targeted at realtime rendering applications, `tobj` has gained
more advanced importer functionality required for offline rendering,
simulation, and modeling applications, through recent work by [@virtualritz].
These features provide support for merging vertices to avoid discontinuities
in simulation packages and reordering vertices to allow omitting the
index buffer. This features have been added while preserving the original
lightweight API design goal of `tobj`, making it a useful crate for a range of
applications loading with OBJ files.
